Event Highlights: Stage, Theater, and Concert

If you like to build your week around special dates, Landshut offers several fixed points. At the Theaterzelt, the operetta “A Night in Venice” is a lively classic on the program.

• Saturday evening: Operetta, performance starts at 7:30 pm – ideal after a stroll through the old town or along the Isar.
• Sunday afternoon: Operetta, starts at 4:00 pm – family-friendly and easily accessible in daylight.
• Sunday evening: Festive vocal concert in the historic town hall ceremonial hall, starts at 5:30 pm – perfect to combine with a short walk through the old town or to St. Martin's Church.

Tip: Check the official organizer pages in advance, as individual dates may occasionally be adjusted. Those who book tickets early set the cultural framework for the whole week and can plan around it in a relaxed way.

Museums in Landshut: From Cult Figure to Art Museum

Between Tuesday and Sunday, several exhibitions open that can be flexibly integrated into your calendar.

• City Museum (Family Exhibition): An accessible, playful approach to cultural history. Suitable for families and the curious.
• Art Museum (Sculpture Focus): Contemporary positions of an internationally acclaimed artist – concentrated, inspiring, calm.

Opening hours of both venues: Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 am–5:00 pm. Prices (guideline): Adults €8, reduced €6, children 6–17 years €4. This allows you to plan quiet mornings or relaxed afternoons – followed by a stroll over the Mühleninsel or through the old town.

The appeal lies in the contrast: here the emotional, family-friendly exhibition, there the focused contemporary art. Those who combine both experience two very different perspectives on Landshut's culture in a short time.

Public City Tours: Understand Landshut in 90 Minutes

Regular tours for individual guests offer a compact overview of history, architecture, and city life.

• Wednesday: Start 2:00 pm
• Saturday: Start 10:30 am and 2:00 pm
• Duration: approx. 90 minutes, Meeting point: in front of the town hall in the old town
• Price: €10 per person, children up to 12 years free

The route includes, among others, the facades of the old town houses, sightlines to St. Martin's Church with its distinctive brick tower, as well as stories about trade, crafts, and festivals. On Wednesdays, the tour can be well combined with a museum visit; on Saturdays, it fits ideally with a detour to the Mühleninsel or along the Isar.

Classic Sights: Castle, Church, and Mühleninsel

Away from fixed times, there are places that can be incorporated at any time:

• Castle: The ascent – by stairs or along winding paths – rewards with a wide view over rooftops and river courses. The interiors offer insights into courtly culture and a historical art and curiosity chamber.
• St. Martin's Church: Its high brick tower shapes the skyline. Even without an interior visit, it is a constant point of orientation when walking through the alleys.
• Mühleninsel: Located between arms of the Isar – short paths into greenery, views of water and bridges. Ideal as a quiet break between museum, tour, and evening program.

These destinations work as a flexible toolkit: as a start in the morning, as a movement unit at noon, or in the evening to catch your breath.

Isar, Hofgarten, and Surroundings: Breathe Outdoors

Promenades along the Isar are suitable for short rounds during lunch breaks as well as for longer city walks. Bridges such as the Isarsteg open up new perspectives on the river, old town, and castle – especially atmospheric in changing light.

Above the city, the Hofgarten invites you to small round tours. For cycling enthusiasts, sections of the Isar or Vilstal cycle paths are recommended – even short stretches convey a sense of openness just outside the city gates.

Planning Suggestion for Early Starters

• Monday: Arrival and relaxed settling in – old town walk, ascent to the castle.
• Tuesday–Friday: Museum visits in the morning or afternoon (10:00 am–5:00 pm), in between Hofgarten or Isar promenades. Wednesday at 2:00 pm public city tour.
• Saturday: City tour at 10:30 am or 2:00 pm; in the afternoon Mühleninsel or Isar round; in the evening operetta at the Theaterzelt (7:30 pm).
• Sunday: Operetta in the afternoon (4:00 pm), followed by a festive vocal concert in the town hall ceremonial hall (5:30 pm). In between, a short walk to St. Martin's Church or through the alleys.

Important: The entries in the official calendars and venues are decisive. A final check shortly before departure protects you against last-minute changes.

Practical Information

• Tickets: Book early – especially for operetta and vocal concert.
